Mr. Chandler, Yea; Mr. Timmons, Yea; Mr. Hill, Yea Salt The following letter was read by Mr. Henry, County Engineer: Pond February 21, 1974 Mr. William C. Henry, County Engineer Delaware County Commissioners Court House Georgetown, Delaware 19947 Re: Salt Pond Dear Mr. Henry: After investigating the possibility of obtaining water for the above referenced project from the Sussex Shores Water Company, it appears that they are either unwilling or unable to furnish service to this area. Therefore, the developer has determined that he must establish a privately owned public utility to serve his development. We are writing this letter on his behalf to suggest certain provi­ sions which we believe could be included in an agreement between the developer and the County to enable the County to purchase this system at some future date. The basis for the agreement would be as follows: 1) The water system will consist of a well, a treatment plant, storage facilities, and a distribution system with fire protection. 2) The system will be capable of serving approxi­ mately 1,458 dwelling units, all located within the RPC zone in the development known as Salt Pond. 3) The water system will be built to the specifica­ tions for Water Systems for Sussex County. 4) The system will be designed to become part of the regional system for the County. 5) All construction plans and specifications will be submitted to the County for review before contracts for construction are let. 6) Easements will be provided over the private roads or through private property to accomodate the water system. -4- February 26, 1974 Salt 7) The County will have the option for a period Pond of 10 years to either: Cont. (a) lease the water system or (b) purchase the water system 8) The purchase price will be the construction cost of the facilities to be incorporated into the County system, less depreciation computed at the rate allowed by the Public Service Commission. The construction cost is defined as the actual cost paid to the contractors for materials and labor plus the cost of design, stakeout and inspection of the facilities. The purchase price will not include any fran­ chise costs, goodwill or other intangibles. 9) All easements, rights of way and fee simple property necessary to maintain and operate the water system will be dedicated by the developer without charge and will be free and clear of all liens. 10) The privately owned public utility will use its best effort to establish a rate base which would be comparable to the rates to be charged by the County, insofar as the rules and regulations of the Public Service Commission will allow. We believe that the above provisions constitute a basis for an agreement between the developer and the County, and will enable the County to obtain control of this utility at such time as it deems feasible and in the most equitable manner. Please review the above as soon as possible. We will be available to supply any additional information that you request. Very truly yours, WHITMAN, REQUARDT and ASSOCIATES By: Thomas J. Shafer No action was taken on the above letter. American Mr. Ray R. Wise of the American Cancer Society appeared before Cancer the Council and explained the services of this Society and Society their need for funds.

  • Annual Report of the Chief Engineer State Highway Department 1933
    Annual Report of the Chief Engineer State Highway Department 1933 Dover, Delaware January 1, 1934 To the Chairman and Members of the State Highway Department, Dover, Delaware. Sirs: Pursuant to the statute, I herein submit a report of the achYI· ties of the State Highway Department for the calendar year 1933. Included therein is a list of roads for which petitions have been received asking that they be taken over by the Department as State Highways. There are also several recommendations as to the future work of the Department. A greater number of contracts have been awarded than ever before in the history of the Department. The mileage of all types of highways under contract, including widening projects, has been almost double that of any previous year. This has been made possible by the construction during the year of 115.1 miles of low cost secondary roads and not to increased funds available. The larger number of contracts and the continuation of un­ settled employment and economic conditions have introduced new problems and adjustments, which have added much to the work of all divjsions of the Department, while the uncertaiuty of the amounts of both State and Federal Funds available during the first half of the year added to the pressure of work jn the sh" months just dosing.
